## Summary

Netflix has acquired worldwide rights to Joel Coen’s gothic mystery “Jack of Spades”, with a planned theatrical release in autumn 2027 followed by streaming. Set in 1880s Scotland, the film tells a story of intrigue and betrayal in the Highlands, and could become part of Netflix’s awards-season campaign in 2028.

The cast includes Josh O’Connor, Patsy Ferran, Damian Lewis and Lesley Manville. The screenplay is by Eleanor Catton, Joel and Ethan Coen, and Conor McPherson, adapting a 1901 novel by Frances Frederica Montrésor.

The film is Joel Coen’s second solo directing project and his second collaboration with Netflix.
